Your contract calls for you to provide cleaning and maintenance of this shower, Greg? 
Them stones, while interesting and attractive, are gonna be one grat big ol' PITA, say I.

I've got a pallet of Spectralock on order. 
They're up pretty high CX, I don't think they'll be that big of a problem. 
I figured people would be more interested in how I got them pebbles to stay up like that.  Nails? Magic?

Nice little shower and tub surround in Collierville, TN.
Lighter tile on top was 13x13 cut into three pieces for subway look. Schluter Rondec around niche and top of curb.
Oh yeah and the joy of two different colored grouts in same day.

I know what's in it my point was that it clogs up for some people faster than a normal drain. I never tell people to check that screen but I will now that I've gotten calls about it.

Goofed on the pattern. So I stopped and took a pic before I popped it off.
You're looking at a window trimmed out on the right and a pylon in the corner.
Kerdi shower.

I think I bought it from Tools4tile if memory serves, which it rarely does.

Greg does that pole has a fine tune adjustment. When I'm setting my laser up I usually have to fine tune the height with anything laying around to get the height right on the money.

I use a camera tri-pod under my laser. It has a 10 - 12" crank adjustment for fine tuning.
